Why do the people who park their cars on the street
between Pearce Hall and Washington Apartments block
the sidewalk? Ithink there is -sufficient room for
them to park and stili leave the sidewalk clear for
both the pedestrians and the snow plow.

Hours
question
on tap
The University Housing Committee will meet, today at 4 p jn*
in room 300 of the Old Library
for a semi-closed meeting. The
committee is expected to discuss
the new proposal on women's
hours, as weU as open house
policies.
The women's hours policy
passed by Student Senate asks for
the abolishment of hours for
sophomore women and above. In
addition, freshmen coeds would
be able to waive hours with parental permission.
Although the meeting is semi-
closed, four members of the
united Women's Action Committee wiU be allowed in the meeting. The committee has led the
move for abolishing hours' here.
Several students from Saxe
Hall staged a sit-in Monday afternoon in flavor of aboUshing women's hours and liberalizing open
house policies. Coeds are expected to stage another sit-in
Wednesday outside the Housing
Committee meeting.
She and her husband, Mark,
live in Saginaw where he attends
Delta CoUege. Mrs. Stanuszek
is doing her student teaching at
Sherwood Elementary School.
A teaching career is a switch
from her original purpose when
she enrolled at U of M, She
planned to be a dental technician.
However, after working summers
with an orthodontist, she began
to realize that what she liked
about the work was her contact
with children. Teaching seemed
the answer and she sees no reason to regret her choice based
on her experiences as a student
teacher.
In February she will be on her
own as a teacher. She has accepted a position in Saginaw's
NeUe Haley School where she will
teach second grade,
Mrs. Stanuszek has decided
to continue with her education.
She wiU work toward her
master's degree, probably in the
area of guidance and counseling.
She expects to do most of her
graduate work at Central.
CMU's top scholars will lead
the procession of 818 mid-year
graduates at commencement in
Finch Fieldhouse Saturday, January 24.

By THE ASSOCIATED  PRESS
With the Christmas
rush on in stores around Michigan, a year-end buying rush of
another kind is underway at Michigan coUeges,
The term paper business has
never been better, or at least
not more open.
There's nothing new about students offering their services as
term paper writers for friendship of profit. The difference is
that they are starting to advertise the service.
A classified ad published in
the Wayne State University student paper, The South End, this
term-read; "'Term papers-for
sale, $15.    WeU bibUographed,
weU footnoted papers available
glish, classics, economics,
psychology ..  -
The South End is not the only
college paper that receives, and
accepts, such ads.
- We*ve run a few ads tor term
papers," said an assistant ©ditor
of the Michigan State News. *1
dart even think it's a moral
issue anymore. The kids know
that most term papers are just
a big, fat chore/'
"We carry ads for term papers, too,"' said a spokesman
for the Michigan Daily at the
University of Michigan. "Lots
of kids go out and buy them near
the end of the semester. They
get in a pinch. They run out
of time."
. Arnie Rubin, editor of the
Eastern Michigan Echo, also reports  his paper has run sev-
in poUtical science, history, En-    *** classm^ *>■ tor term pa.
*      •   - pers.
One professor, while sayinghe
knows papers are bought and
sold, indicated surprise at how
openly the papers are sold.
"I've never heard of running
ads like that before/' said Dr.
Charles Denton, a political
science instructor at Wayne;
"That's a whole new twist.
"But I still dont thinktheper-
eentage of kids who cheat in
coUege has grown, Ithinkthey're
just being more bJatantaboutit."
Som9 teachers have also developed methods for sniffing out the /
store-boughten paper.
"We rehire freshmen to submit outlines and early drafts
along with their finished term
papers," said Dr. Milton P.
Foster, head of the English Department at EMU. 'They cant
do that if they've bought a prepackaged paper."
